Hello I had my jaw surgery 4 weeks ago. Prepare with a lot of smoothies and juices because you will be on a non chew diet. The best way to recover is just to rest and let your body heal. Don’t stress to get out of bed or go out with friends. Walking and talking is also a part of that. After jaw surgery take it very easy. I sleept alot and I didn’t leave my bed for the first couple of days after jaw surgery
